Hi, I would love to still be able to continue to buy stuff using my paypal stealth? Is this possible? Like from nordstrom? Please let me know your thoughts! Thx!

Why not make a buying account....seems a lot more simple.

I'd just make a buying account with your real name and address. eBay don't care if your spending dollars.

its for paypal. and my info is all stealth so how would it get to delivered to me?

You would need an address you have access to - like a po box for example...

I buy stuff on Ebay all the time using stealth Paypal funds. I've never tried on websites though, because most big companies are going to require you have the order shipped to your confirmed Paypal address.

I just change the shipping address during checkout on Ebay to some variation of my home address. Adding "front porch" on the 2nd line works fine. The address isn't "confirmed" this way, but I buy stuff from sellers all the time with listings that say "we only ship to your confirmed Paypal address." It's never been an issue. I'm guessing at this point the majority of sellers are using shipstation or some other automated program, so they don't really check to make sure your shipping address is "confirmed".

I have a feeling that our suggestions aren't coming across clearly.

1. MAKE A PAYPAL ACCOUNT...IN YOUR NAME, ADDRESS, AND SO FORTH
2. BUY STUFF

How is this hard?

I know some of you may doubt me but I've seriously been doing this for a while without any problems. I have 4 or 5 unverified (no bank) accounts which I sell from, and then use 100% of the proceeds to buy shipping/office supplies for my big business accounts. All of those orders are shipped directly to my house.

For me it's a matter of putting stealth funds to good use, rather than having to pay for stuff with my actual debit card.

Simply adding a new shipping address during checkout works wonders.

I don't do this with my big business accounts because I try to avoid any risks on those. I buy stuff all day on my smaller accounts though.

My main PayPal was suspended. Can I make a new PayPal in my name for purchases? What about sending payments?

I would just use guest checkout for both of those.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I should just try it out. Last time I tried guest checkout for something it seemed like my card was blocked.

I meant sending mass payments via PayPal. I think I need an account for that.

Yeah I'm fairly certain you'll need an account for mass payment, because my understanding is mass payments can only be paid with your account balance.
